Premiere Pro CC Multicam Problems

Does anyone else have problems with the mulitcam feature? The sync audio is having about a 20 percent success rate. When I manually mark points for sync, I still come up short. Half the clip of one camera is missing from the multicam sequence. I might have to go back to FCPX since I never had a problem with their multicam syncing. Any help would be much apprecieated.

First off, did you update from Premiere CC 7.0 to 7.0.1? If not, do it now. There was a big multicam bug in 7.0 that's fixed in 7.0.1 that will cause the sync to get thrown way off. I've had "decent" success with audio sync. Not 100% though. I sometimes use it as a quick start and then re-sync manually from there or I just go back to the old way of syncing by in points. Outside of that, I have no idea.

Premiere Pro CC Multicam - 2 camera angles being split into multiple tracks

I love CC's multicam feature, but keep having this problem:
In Pluraleyes, I would lay all my Cam 1 material on video track 1 (multiple clips), then Cam 2 on video track 2 (multiple clips), add my audio, and create a multicam track that kept all Cam 1 clips on track 1 and all Cam 2 clips on track 2.
in Premiere Pro CC, multicam creation can only be exectued via the browser, not the timeline. So Premiere syncs everything up and throws each clip onto the next video track up, leaving you with a mountain of timeline media that reads out tiny and jumps all over the place when viewed in the multicam monitor (see picture).
What I'm after:
- the ability to create multicam sequences based on the timeline (lay out all clips from each cam on whichever video track I want, select all, then choose "create multicam sequence") so that the end result isn't 20 video tracks I have to manually collapse into 2 (time waster).
Help Adobe?
thanks
jesse

I know this is a rather old post, but have been having a play with multi cam for a while and watching a few videos so help this helps.
What I do to get rid of extra cameras that are generated with each new multicam process.
The process im mentioning is very briefly mentioned in this clip : Adobe Premiere Pro CC Tutorial | Performing Multi-Camera Editing - YouTube
Once I have made my multicam source file.
Drag to new sequence icon (similar to what is done with a clip and want to make a quick sequence from clips properties.)
You will have the green nested footage (this will have multicam enabled by default.
Ctrl + Double Left click the green bar. This reveals all the clips and audio.
Arrange the clips onto which ever video layer you want (each representing a Camera)
Double click the the sequence created to reset the sequence to have the green bar for editing but with only 2-3 cameras as desired and not the 12 you dread.
First time poster, sorry if not overly clear.

Premiere pro cs6 multicam editing

hI all!
How can I do a Premiere Pro cs6 multicam editing when there is a "audio only" clip too? for exemple when there is an external service audio recording?
Selecting the clips and right clic the create source multi-camera menù command is deactivated, and this option is not available; why doesn't it work?
thank you all.

Premiere Pro CC2014 - Graphic problem makes my machine freezes

Hi guys,
I use Adobe Premiere Pro since the subscriptions began.
When I did the update to CC 2014, an issue starts and this freaking me out until now.
I don't have a clue for what makes it starts but in a common edit day, after editing about 1 hour... the software starts to show graphic erros (like you can see in the pictures attached). After this, about 20 minutes with the problem my machine freezes.
It only happens with Premiere Pro. I use all other softwares from Adobe without any problems.
What do you think about?

Hi Duca,
Sorry to hear about your issues.
I use Adobe Premiere Pro since the subscriptions began.
When I did the update to CC 2014, an issue starts and this freaking me out until now.
I don't have a clue for what makes it starts but in a common edit day, after editing about 1 hour... the software starts to show graphic erros (like you can see in the pictures attached). After this, about 20 minutes with the problem my machine freezes.

What do you think about?
We don't know much about your system. Can you fill us in? FAQ: What information should I provide when ask... | Adobe Community
Typically, this is a Mac only issue on OS X 10.9 and OS X 10.10. It can occur on any Mac containing a NVIDIA GPU, but most commonly on MacBook Pro laptops with a NVIDIA GPU installed.
Typically occurs when using Premiere Pro with other GPU intensive applications.
Other GPU intensive applications that are popular with Apple users include Google Chrome, Apple App Store, Apple iTunes, and Spotify.
Some editors use these applications concurrently with Premiere Pro. Likely, many are unaware that these applications can trigger the issue sooner or even cause your OS to crash.
Using a lot of GPU accelerated effects in Premiere Pro can also trigger this issue
If you are using only a normal amount of GPU accelerated effects and working long hours, it can trigger the issue.
If this is the computer you have, and this sounds like your issue, do the following:
Restart the computer
Start Premiere Pro
Choose File > Project Settings
In the General tab under the category Video Rendering and Playback, choose Renderer > Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL). If Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration (OpenCL) is not available, switch the Renderer to Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration Software Only.
Click OK
A dialog box will appear, which reads “Video Rendering and Playback Settings Changes.” Read the text, and then click the Delete Previews button. Note: any previously rendered previews will have to be rendered once more in the new renderer with a render command in the Sequence menu.
Premiere Pro should now operate without the screen problems.
Let us know if this works for you.
Thanks,
Kevin

Premiere pro CC (2014) problems with audio on .mts files

Hi,
This is a recent problem I have been having when trying to play certain clips in Premiere Pro CC (2014), I import the entire private folder and some of the clips play as normal and others seem to have skipping audio. This causes the second half of the clip to not have any audio in it at all because it is bunched up at the beginning. I don't even know where to start with trying to fix the problem, the only thing I have done is re import the files and put them in new folders to change the destination it has been imported from.
Any advice would be extremely helpful as it is mostly stopping me from getting on with any work,
Thanks!

Hi amber1992,
I will suggest you to go ahead and clean the Media cache and Media cache files folders manually.
MAC OS: Click on Go menu>Go to Folders>type ~/Library and click ok. This will open User Library folder and then navigate to Application Support>Adobe>Common>Media Cache and Media Cache files. Delete all the files from these folders.
Windows: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common or you can Click on Start button and in search type %appdata% and open Roaming folder>Adobe>Common>Media Cache and Media Cache files.
Once done launch the project again and check.
Regards,
Vinay

Premiere pro cs6 multicam stress test

hey everyone.
been shooting with 6 synced cameras recently, and the whole project setup worked just fine for as i decided to switch from fcp to premiere with this project.
i edited the first two clips back in fcp just to make sure i get in the groove before diving into a new program which i expected nothing less from than to work properly
which it did in the beginning.customizable keyboard layout, familiar workspace, everything seemed in place.
i easily set up my sometimes 16-track multiclips and this is where it got really bumpy.
so i am writing this to get feedback proving me wrong.
first of all:
why is there a multicam monitor that sort of hovers above the timeline and doesn't interact with it?
sure i can press record and then select my angles, but with more complicated setups this is close to totally unusable. i don't want to react to my images, i want to be ahead of the cut.
more precisely: if i shuttle frame by frame in the multicam monitor, the record option is inactive, but for certain, more complex edits (16 tracks...) edits i need this like a fish needs water, because my brain doesnt process 16 tracks at once and sometimes i want to make 2 or 3 cuts a second... you get the point.
this "thing" (multicam monitor) is semi pro, at best.
so i closed this window and tried it the usual way...
lets say i have a timeline and it's been edited 10 seconds in, maybe 15 cuts.
if i now doubleclick my timeline and shuttle over it, i'd expect my source window to
1) display my 16 tracks simultaneously in the source monitor.
2) mark the track that i am currently on in the timeline in the source monitor ("jumping" yellow mark around the current track).
...it doesn't.
while in fcp it all runs simultaneously.
in premiere i have to drag the timeline onto the source monitor, then "gag" it with the program monitor and then...
if i play it back just the selected monitor (source/program) plays it back.
why is this?
first of all: if i gag both monitors after shuttling at different times - out of sync.
why do i even have to do this?
so my current workaround is this.
- multiclip (nested sequence actually) on my timeline.
- drag it onto the source monitor.
- gag it with the program monitor (otherwise my timeline cursor doesnt move)
- select the frame where it want to cut
- select my timeline again
- cut
and start all over.
if i forget about one of these steps it gets reeeeally messy.
please tell me that i am doing it all wrong.

you're right, but i never expected premiere pro to be "the same".
and i am not gonna complain about the multicam functionality once more, i just like things to work and usually it's human error,
but in this case PP just seems to lack certain vital functions.
if i ctrl+click it it gives me a context menu, which i can leave aside by doubleclicking/dragging the timeline to the source monitor and then simply click the desired angle.
if i ignore my timeline and just rely on the "go to next edit point" button in the multicam monitor, i can not set an edit point without playing back... (if there's a shortcut take this as virtual hug if you tell me)
then i have to close the MCmonitor in order to trim my cuts, then jump back in the MCmonitor.
adobe put so much effort in reducing clutter (which i definitely give them the credits for, well done adobe.)..
but this specific function reduces the working speed immensely, especially when you have to use it 12hours+.
the program is called "pro" and i just hope adobe takes this term more seriously than the company with the well known fruit logo did.
don't get me wrong i know what it means to pull off a major rewrite like this and i bow in awe before adobe to create such flawless software, but this is a chance for as thousands of ex-fcp users tend to switch these days. not just for software reasons but also for hardware reasons because on the pro side a macpro is just not enough for certain workloads anymore.

Premiere Pro CC MXF problems

Hi there,
I'm currently working on Premiere Pro CC. We've imported all of our clips from our C300 from a hard drive that was shipped to us. The folder structure in intact and the clips have been working fine, up until now.
I opened up my project today and I noticed a few clips were offline, they won't relink but instead give me a "generic error" message. The weird part is that there can be 2 clips from the same folder/file structure and one will work and one won't. Even weirder, we back up all of our media to two different folders. The folder we keep our working media on is getting thrown offline, the folder we archive everything... imports fine.
We also noticed that, even though we imported from the Media Browser, the .mxf extension appears. This hasn't been the case in any of our other projects. It's a recent addition. Not sure if that's part of the problem but it's weirdly timed to our offline problem. It looks like we dragged our footage from the finder but we did not.
Any ideas as to what's going on? One thought we had was that we recently upgraded to premiere 2014 but due to conversion issues and generally bugs, we decided to downgrade back to CC temporarily. We've completely uninstalled the 2014 suite and trashed all preferences.

Hi Matt,
I know that some other customers have complained about the quality of exports, as well. I have heard that 2 pass VBR might give bad quality. Can you try an encode with 1 Pass VBR instead? The quality should be just fine with 1 Pass VBR.
Thanks,

Premiere Pro CC rendering problems : can't see my medias anymore

Hello,
I started my first project on Premiere Pro CC, but it looks like PP CC isn't working well concerning rendering, I think I'm going to use my Premiere Pro CS6 again...
Sometimes, the rendering simply stops working : I can't see my output view anymore, only the "Media Pending". Removing media cache, rendering files, no effect. Closing the project and opening it again, still the same. Sometimes I can get the files back by selecting another rendering Engine, but after a few minutes, I loose my medias again.
I've seen the other post concerning preview files lost and the "empty sequence solution', but mine is different : I can't simply get the view back.
The other problem is that when I close PP CC, and try to launch it again, If first have to manually stop the PP CC process, which seems to be crashed as it doesn't completly stop.
Olivier

Ok, I just met a new problem, with the "unexpected MUTE" bug.
No need to answer my previous problem, I've decided to stop using Premiere Pro CC, which needs to be seriously fixed by Adobe teams. more than 60 euros per month for such a quality is a SHAME.
Let's switch back to PP CS6.

Premiere Pro CC - Render Problems

I'm having some trouble using Premiere Pro Creative Cloud. I edited videos using CS6 and CC with the same sequence settings, font settings, and export settings (i.e. YouTube SD widescreen 29.97 preset), and exported with Media Encoder. But the quality of the CC video is much worse then the CS6 video. See attached for my screenshots of my settings. Please help me figure out the Creative Cloud problems. Thanks so much.
CC font settings:
CS6 font settings:
CC sequence settings:
CS6 sequence settings:
CS6 export settings:
CC export settings:
Here's the CC render (bad quality):
Here's the CS6 render (better quality):
If our sequence, font, and render settings in both CS6 and CC are the same, why do we get different results in terms of the quality of the renders?

Premiere Pro CS5 codec problem

Hey all. Here's the problem. At work I use Premiere CS3 on an old Edius box that has Canopus codecs. When I archive a final copy, I use a DVCPRO HD codec, specifically the Canopus SD50/DVHD codec, to an AVI file.
At home I have a new copy of CS5 on a new machine. I brought home some of these AVI files from work that used the Canopus SD50/DVHD codec. I could not open them up at home on anything. I went and found the codec and installed it. Now I can open the files with Media Player no problem, but I cannot import them into Premiere, Adobe Media Encoder, or After Effects. The result is audio and not video.
Any suggestions that don't include re-exporting everything using a different codec?
Thanks!

Any suggestions that don't include re-exporting everything using a different codec?
Unless there is a 64-bit version of the codec, you're limited to doing just that. You might be able to drop $160 on DVCPRO HD: MainConcept. No guarantees that'll even work though.
I'd just convert them to Lagarith Lossless Video Codec or Ut Video Codec Suite; they're lossless, free, and will both work in Premiere Pro CS5.
